Charity "Smokers" of Denver, Colo., Lodge Bring in Tidy Sum

In Denver, Colo., there is a strong liking for the manly art. At the same time, in Denver Lodge No. 17, there is a strong liking for the ability to have a heavy charity fund on tap at all times, with the result that boxing and charity have been combined in Denver Lodge with most satisfactory results. A year ago, that part of the entertainment work which pertained to the “smokers" of the Lodge was placed in the hands of James B. Cassaday, with instructions to provide both entertainment and funds for charity work. The result shows a payment into the charity fund of $6,534.43. All this by providing legitimate, clean fun to members of Denver Lodge No. 17, and without calling upon outside assistance, such as is so often done with shows, carnivals,^ indoor circuses and the like. And to say nothing of bringing the thousands of the members to their own Home for their evening's amusement.
